Description
I believe we are gathering enough data safely from here but...
Tharu is an exceptional ecologist and prefers we take action. Still, the ecosystem is fragile, and we may damage it if we are not careful. I do however agree we don't have much time.
it might be worth indulging him. A little.
Culling the rampaging elementals ought to buy us time without impeding our research. Be sure to cull them in equal numbers--we don't want to throw things further out of balance.

Progress
Is it done? Can I finally get Tharu off my back about this?
Completion
Did that seem to affect anything? No?
<Ecologist Iskha sighs.>
Well, at least we're nearly finished with our research.
Notes
- Upon accept
- Ecologist Iskha says: And try not to touch anything! All I need is a contaminated workspace... and compromised data!
- Upon return
- Ecologist Tharu says: I'm making an incision next to the left dorsal spine, and if you don't like it--
- Ecologist Iskha says: You're risking dorsal spine avulsion! Ugh, why won't you just listen to me?
- Ecologist Tharu says: Oh, <name>. Didn't see you'd returned.
- Ecologist Iskha says: Tharu and I can discuss this later.

Alpha version
- Description
The wetlands are indeed in disarray, but this ecosystem is fragile, and we may damage it further in our haste. My dear Tharu is an exceptional ecologist, but he prefers taking action. I think there's more going on here that we need to understand, first. Still, it might be worth indulging him. A little. Culling the rampaging elementals ought to buy us time without impeding our research. Be sure to cull them in equal numbers-- we don't want to throw things further out of balance.
